				<h3>Description:</h3>
				<p align="justify">This project not only addresses the forest conservation issue but also takes a step ahead in developing a model that could be replicated in several other villages inhabiting the forest areas. This project started in 2012 by AID Johns Hopkins University has already been spreading in the region. The idea is that the forest around the village be managed, grown and protected by the villagers. Under the forest rights act of India, the Paivihir village has got 190 hectares of forest land under the local government village body called Panchayats. This enables Panchayat to implement employment guarantee schemes by government of India into the forest. The result is people are employed and forest is protected. The villagers have also volunteered to plant trees with participation of 120 women and 100 men.</p>
				<h3>Support:</h3>
				<p align="justify"> The total estimated support needed is $2000.</p>
